Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure generally relate to medical aspiration devices and their methods of use. In some cases, the devices are configured to create a vacuum to capture and/or immobilize a solid deposit at a location internal to a subject. Such configurations may be useful, for example, for removing intact kidney stones small enough to pass through the ureter. In some cases, the devices further include an ablation instrument. Such devices may be useful, for example, for ablating larger solid deposits into a plurality of smaller particles at a location internal to the subject (e.g., ablating kidney stones that are too large to pass through the ureter). In some cases, the vacuum created by the devices is used to remove the plurality of smaller particles from the location internal to the subject.

Abstract: An apparatus is configured to provide hemostasis with tissue removal in order to inhibit one or more of blood loss or tissue drainage. In many embodiments, a nozzle releases a liquid jet in a liquid medium in order to provide cavitation and a plurality of shedding pulses. The liquid jet, its cavitation and the plurality of shedding pulses can affect vascular tissue in order to promote clotting in order to inhibit bleeding. In many embodiments, vessels of the vascular tissue are affected at a distance from a region where cavitation of the water jet contacts the tissue. In many embodiments, the cavitation and plurality of shedding pules are related to a pulsatile shear wave propagating along the blood vessel that is related to clot promoting changes of the blood vessel.

Abstract: Customized temporary veneers. The customized temporary veneers are configured to be temporarily attached to a target region of an individual's dental arch and include a plurality of tooth-covering regions, at least one joining region, and a gum-proximate region. Each tooth-covering region includes a corresponding vestibular region configured to at least partially cover a vestibular surface of a corresponding tooth of the dental arch. The at least one joining region operatively attaches a pair of adjacent tooth-covering regions to one another. The gum-proximate region extends from the plurality of tooth-covering regions and is configured to extend at least partially between the plurality of tooth-covering regions and a gum of the individual's dental arch. The corresponding vestibular region defines a vestibular region thickness, and the gum-proximate region tapers from the vestibular region thickness to a gum-proximate edge that defines a gum-proximate edge thickness.
